La Bataille de Friedland et Danzig 1809

Premier Rules for La Bataille ME

 If an infantry unit of a division attempts to force march, all other infantry units of the division must also attempt to force march.  Select a unit and roll to check its morale, subtracting “6” from the die roll.  If the roll is successful, and the unit remains in good morale, then it may move with double its printed movement allowance, in either column or road mode. If the roll fails, the unit stands in place, and may not move.  Units may not make a formation change while force marching, add 12 to their printed morale if charged by cavalry, and may not engage in fire or melee combat as the attacker in the turn they force march.  If the formation attempts to force march a second turn in a row, the die roll modifier is minus 12, when checking to march. This modification is cumulative for every turn. (turn one, minus six; turn two, minus twelve; turn three, minus eighteen) Artillery may attempt to force march if the battery is attached to the division. Reinforcements (44) The Order of Battle will list any units that enter the game as reinforcements; their entry hex; and when they are to arrive. If the entry hex is occupied by an enemy formation or an enemy zone of influence, then the reinforcement may enter five hexes either side of the entry point. If the extended five hex zone is also in a zone of influence, extend the entry zone to another 5 hexes from the first zone with a turns delay to the entry time, and so on. If the entry hex is not a road hex then the units must adopt the appropriate formation for the type of terrain they first encounter like general order in a forest or town. If the entry is a road hex, the units may enter as a column; carre or in road march . Units entering in clear terrain may use every formation but road march and general order . All units entering the map are subject to the stacking rules and may be subject to opportunity charge and fire. Reinforcements may not charge onto the board. Entry Times for reinforcement may also be variable. These variations should be checked for the earliest possible entry time and once resolved, written down. They result does not need to be revealed to your opponent until the units are brought into play. Reinforcements may also be voluntarily delayed. Special Rules Definition (45) Each game will have a special rules package identifying terrain, particular army and unit rules, order of battles, scenarios and other information for a particular battle. As the armies and leaders changed throughout the Napoleonic Wars, the special and technical rules will be revised.
